Use of light

Be sure to write about at least 2 situations like the ones just described that come to mind when you think of light and answer these questions:What is the potential for light to be symbolic in a work of art?What could it symbolize and why?

One situation is that when using light you can emphasize something in the picture while one area could be dark. The potentiol for light is that you can have light change the feeling from happy to sad or add a new element that creates a controversy in the picture. It could symbolize happiness, good strength, trust because light usually represents happy emotions. Another example of use is in the song white light by Gorrilaz it tells of how when you've gone to far you may see the end of the tunnel.
